#Cattlelogue Contents Pages

I’ve added tables of contents to the two #Cattlelogue gallery pages as the Large Cows Gallery especially was tedious to search for specific cows by scrolling.

This would be easy using JavaScript/JQuery, but personal WordPress.com subscriptions don’t allow JavaScript so all the links had to be created manually. A professional WordPress.com subscription is expensive: a self-hosted Linux setup is far cheaper. I may consider that next summer when the subscription renewal is due.

A self-hosted setup would also let me use plugins that provide better features. The standard WordPress tiled photo gallery is annoyingly limited because it doesn’t give me any control over the column sizing, and I can either make the full-resolution images available for viewing/download as I have, or enable a slideshow, but not both.
